I had the privilege of hearing Justice Jackson give a keynote speech at the NCTE (National Council for Teachers of English) convention last month. She spoke with joy and optimism in sharing her life story, ending with "Ordinary people can do extraordinary things."
I’m currently reading her book, ‘Lovely One’ and am enjoying it immensely. She’s an intelligent and interesting woman and is such a great addition to the Supreme Court.
Once again you enlighten us and help us understand the experiences leading to why justices rule the way they do. However, you mentioned this will be the last article on the justices. Did I miss reading all 9? Or did you not write about all of them?
Thank you for these. I think Justice Jackson has been a fantastic addition to the court.
The photo of Leila beaming at her mama is priceless ❤️

I have really enjoyed this series and the insight it provides about the court.
Love the excerpt from that poem so great to reflect on daily! Thank you for this series, sorry to see it end!
I just finished her memoir. What a fascinating and inspiring woman!!
I would love to know where in Africa her aunt was serving in the Peace Corps. And from which language come her names Ketanji and Onyika.
Did you mean Roberts did NOT write a solo dissent in his first 16 years?
